[QUOTE="ImBillT, post: 2299080, member: 117715"] Should be excellent for large game at close ranges. The BC is so terrible that for long ranges(over 300yds…maybe even 250) I’d pick a different bullet. DO NOT bother listening to folks concerned with kenetic energy. Kenetic energy is not important in collisions. Momentum is far better at describing collisions, and you’ll find that the 156 has more momentum than lighter bullets. If you’re shooting s large animal, I would not hesitate to use that bullet…not for one second. If you’re shooting in brush, you can’t do much better. Pointy bullets moving fast can be deflected considerably by leaves and twigs, but blunt nosed bullets moving slowly tend to deflect very little. [/QUOTE]
